So maybe some substrate instead?

What do you mean with substrate?

There is absolutely no need for bonsai soil. Just use any free draining soil/substrate you can buy, or even just regular potting soil.

Tropfrog, I mean what lucR said.

Soil is a substrate. So not sure what you mean.

I will probably end up buying some pumice.



Would this do?

Here are some photos of the hawthorn, sorry for bad quality. There are small red buds already, getting ready for spring.

Do you guys think these are suitable for collection?

pro: old bark//con: long straight trunk, no movement, no lower branches ( but they can be grown if needed). Nebari is impossible to see so cant give comment on that. And as you say pics are really bad...
Knowing what i know now i wouldnt dig em up but when i just started i would probably have.

Perhaps a very small bonsai, that needs to regrow all branches?
But before digging it out. Make a beter picture, remove the snow, and remove some of the soil around the base(nabari) of the tree, and show it here again.
